Toutefois, l'importance de l'effet du travail du sol sur le système racinaire dépend largement de l'état physique initial du profil cultural. Dans un sol déjà bien structuré au départ [...] les modifications de l'état physique du sol dues au travail et donc les effets sur l'enracinement seront moins nets ou même inexistants. 1, record 1, French, - enracinement

Le buttage de printemps a pour objet de provoquer sur la tige enfouie l'émission de nouvelles racines. Pour les pommes de terre, il évite aussi le verdissement des tubercules en les soustrayant à la lumière. Dans le cas des asperges, des céleris-branches, des poireaux, on pratique le buttage afin d'obtenir des parties comestibles de couleur blanche. (Le) buttage d'automne a pour objet de protéger la plante au moins dans une certaine mesure, des effets du gel. 3, record 2, French, - buttage

Una vez así se cortarán al ras del tocón y se sembrarán para propagarlos. 1, record 2, Spanish, - aporcadura
